Well let’s just see how the coveted APMA Seal of Approval translates into sales.
My thoughts ? If MTF was dumb enough to give money to the APMA, which they did, why would I ever trust any of their products ?
They obviously lack judgement.
Rigorous examination, my hemorrhoids ………… !
MTF also is pushing a fat transfer protocol for treatment of foot problems.
Maybe this was injected into Executive Director Christina’s noggin filling the vacated areas of frontal lobe.
How else can you explain him believing that he has any credibility.
Maybe the term “Fat-Head” is indeed applicable here.
Bruce Pinker’s photo every two weeks in the PM Magazine is getting old. It has now got to the point where I do not know whether I will be seeing Bruce Pinkers photo or Robert Weiss’s photo.
Robert (on this site) you are correct. Barry Block is an idiot with the garbage he posts. But he made a wise decision not to practice law.
He would have failed. In fact he is a failure.
Stinker looks like a podiatrist -weasel shyster
Agree, sick of seeing these hustler regulars in that failed barrister’s propaganda rag. Advertizing nonsense to the clueless lifers like Dan and Co as he laughs himself to the bank.
Or Jokelyn Suterio with more marketing masquerading as “news”
They’re like Batman and Robin..
Do nurses get to decide what items dp WTFs choose for the “approved” crap?
Ask the president of the New York State Podiatry Organization. He is a colleague of mine. His name is Dr. James Hanna. He will tell you whatever Governor Cuomo directed to the organization. I understand Governor Cuomo is in charge of the scope of practice of podiatry in the state. This is why I stopped sending the apma PAC money years ago.
Jimmy fannah sounds like a tool. Another clown in the foot circus.
Just to clairify. The Western New York Foot writer is NOT ME! Though Hanna was the guy who bought my practice and left it. Can’t recall if he filed official bankruptcy but he left on a technicality that his corp? group? couldn’t make it. He took no personal responsbility. Left it high and dry and opened in a different location. There’s your New York State President. Very Podiatric. What you’d expect from a “podiatric politician”. Never even received an apology. And he’s proud that we need nurses to oversee us? Where’s that big ego you had JIM?
What a scum bag. Very podiatrick. Looks like a typical podiatrist
Robert, did you see stinkers ADVERTISEMENT in that pos barrister’s rag? Does stinker pay for this ADVERTISEMENT under the guise of ‘donation’ during Christmas? POS.
The sign of the foot tech BUSINESS is very prominent in his promotion pic, and helps with the propaganda of APPEARING atruisitic as some dipshit dips their hand in the bag to “donate” or whatever—just another marketing scheme for stinker. Shysters et al. Also–the shoe house silly shoe pic that barryster presents is interesting. Is that fashioned after his manhattan high rise?
Does Barry live in a high rise with fugly Hermin ? Is it true that fugly Hermin cut off his balls ?
Vermin lives in that manhattan high rise paid by pody imbeciles who support that propagandist’s rag. He continously takes a shit in their living room and the lifers gleefully support it. Shoe house pictures and blacks and girls getting jobs to appear “diverse”/PC bullshit. wow. wee. ,what’s next wear mittens when it’s cold outside, wash dirty feet with water, Pinkeschteins gives to a “charity” (self promotion advert), and…economic “advice”– you should save money during ‘lean’ times?!? How provocative. This is definitely 3rd grade intellect which encapsulates the poorfession nicely
I THINK that after 911 Barry got SCARED and moved out of a CITY high rise and into the suburbs (Forestville?).
Now do you all see that podiatry is SOLD AS a medical profession when in reality its a medical BUSINESS. Dirty men came up with the scheme and they still control podiatry. If you’re not in it. Stay away from it. That is if you really wanted to be a DOCTOR.
A few (a very few) are coming to the realization that PODIATRISTS aren’t considered doctors or safe. Just think. Pods need to prove basic medical (nurese, EMT) competence and that expires in just a few weeks then podiatrists fall back to full lying mode about what and how good they are.. Barry Block shows a picture of a SHOE HOUSE. Is it his? Any wonder when a smart legislators reads about podiatry and see Barry Blocks blog that they REFUSE TO GIVE PODIATRISTS ANY INCREASE IN SCOPE. If it looks like a quack profession and is supported by its members… Read more »
You can’t really blame NewYork. What do they know about podiatry. Ask Medicare. Most of what pods do is nail cutting. Sterility ?? Injections far down on the list. Even the “ankle surgeons hold the ” 10″ blade a lot more horizontally than vertically.
If they know podiatry as B RRY BLOCK shows podiatry it’s no wonder they keep those shoe loving, toenail cutting, overbilling quacks under nurses and P.A’s. “”any suggestions”?
Step 1. Eat some tomain lo mein. Step 2. Watch the night. Step 3. In the morning, when they “feeling” happens”, the stuff on the toilet paper was the national footsy klub seal of approval….
Stinker approved
Now that chirop……. I mean foot and ankle surgeons are allowed to administer covid vaccines in NY. Are the injections done before or after the nails are clipped. And do they have to give the injections somewhere on the foot. Which foot?
administered only after rigid training (to make up for incompetent quack school training and then ONLY UNDER SUPERVISION BY A NURSE PA OR DOCTOR. THAT’S WHAT YOU DPM IS WORTH.
Why do most past APMA presidents and board members have nice consulting gigs after they leave office? What a bunch of ego blow hards..Podiatry is dying and they are scooping up wound care consulting fees and and any other fees they can grab.
Until dp wtfs grow a pair, and STOP giving money to these clowns, associations, clubs, organizations, etc..etc.., NOTHING will change. Starve them financially since their god is money
Yup! That’s the ticket. Don’t feed the vermin.
That;s because podiaty leaders never went in it for the medicine but as a BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. Podatry puts business ahead of medicine that’s why it goes nowhere and needs nurses to oversee them givin a shot in the arm. I HAVE TO WONDER WHAT INDUCEMENT ($$) WERE GIVEN TO GET PODIATRY THE ABILITY TO PRESCIBE, THAN MOVE UP TO PAIN MEDS, TOUCH THE ANKLE (in a few states) without changing the curriculum very much. POLITICIANS KNOW THEY CAN BUY EACH OTHER.
No different than politicians and other vermin
Why do podiatrists who purport to be “physicians and surgeons”, require to be supervised by a nurse for a flu shot in new yawk? What a farce podiatry was. How can anyone be proud of this shit poorfession? And that midget shyster posts it like it’s something to be proud of??? New Yaawk Hahnah you’re a tool. Merry Xmas fucking asshat
Dear “dog”. The operative word is “purport” vs. “are”. Podiatry was born on a lie, operates on a lie, and it’s future is bet on a lie. Barry Block makes his money protecting the LIE>
I will stick with good housing seal of approval products!
It’s yet another sales con. How predictable.
Erratum: Permission for podiatrist sto play nurse ends Jan 12 not 14th so play time is even shorter. HOW EMBARASSING IT IS TO BE A PODIATRIST IF YOU’RE HONEST WITH YOURSELF.
Sobriquet of the day I wish it was the 4th of July…Rearfoot and Butthead hastily found the exit door, and hang around on the floor. Had my burrito, peppered on up yeh yeh yeh—Merry Christmas to you all, and wish you all the best—or is that breast…Eh, the toxic haze of the season is a good reason to be grateful we’re not on vents.
Get a nurse to approve that message DP wtf
Let me count the adverbs and adjectives ad nauseum, phrases that mean nothing, list one book here that made NY times list and I will leave.
Master Surgeon CAN’T EVEN GIVE A SHOT LIKE A NURSE YET THINKS BECAUSE HE DOES A FEW ELECTIVE CARPENTRY’S HE A DOCTOR instead of a fancy technician, a PA light. BTW, if our phrases mean nothing to you than you “just don’t get it”. Perhaps a blog with shoes and toenails, and “any suggestions” is all your capable of relating to. foot Sx? Monkey see, Monkey do. Mentation, systemic interaction? Internal Medicine Hey Master, why try to convince us. Legislators and MD’s are your betters and your controllers. Tell them how great YOU are! They seem to think you’re where… Read more »
Robert you can complain all you want about Podiatry. You were NOT trained in surgery so your complaints are hollow.
MASTER SURGEON in DP land means shit so you are a jerkoff
I’m not sure what you call surgery but I did my fair share. No ankles because even to this day the dpm degree does not qualify NON DOCTORS to touch the ankle IN NYawk. A few got a special dispensation certificate after training under MD Doctors to do a little ankle but NO LEG! So, DON’T BLAME ME FOR LAWS THAT THE APMA HAVE FAILED TO CHANGE. Knowing podiatry for >40 years I know what’s done on the foot and there’s not much you may have done that I haven’t. Ankle? How many total ankles are really done? Few. You… Read more »
Fair enough: Provide your full name—not bogus, address, no PO box, and will have a few units shipped to you. It’s late, got a plane to catch, yet if you want a challenge. Be mindful that leaving is cowardice: Who Dares Wins. If you do not accept this precept…you lose. May, rather than might autograph – May reflects possibility, whereas might is abstract as this a dubious speculation –
Send me your e-mail address and ill send you my physical address. Just one best seller that all I need to see.
MASTER. YOU SOUND LIKE THAT SICK GUY “HUGH” with a brother who had an MD and who was afraid someone would find out who he was. Must be tough to have a brother or wife thats a DOCTOR when you are just a podiatric pretender
Robert–gotta ‘love’ the propagandist’s obsession with black people and girl Dp wtfs. See, see, even girls of ‘color’ can do “well” in the foot thing. Must be more virtue signalling and identity politics for that shrimp to APPEAR PC/diverse…wonder how many blacks and mexicans are in his mahattan high rise? hmm…Then poor spare rib after that boating “incident”, he’s talking about calcaneal fusions–maybe he needs to be speak to his MD orthos that operated on HIS feet? Also, good news Dp wtfs after 11 year of stooling, schooling sorry, you can now temporarily give a flu shot under the watchful… Read more »
Not just embarrassing R respectively; it’s humiliating. And to think brainwashed imbeciles give thousands per year to ASSociations and clubs that do NOTHING to help podiatry progress in a structural way. Hence, why it’s called: podupetry. They have to answer to nurses. That’s reality. They cannot nor will not be honest w/themselves because that’s called self-reflection and introspection. They lie to themselves. It’s a life of lies. Their “life” was a waste-Leon Trotsky. Only until they were on their death bed maybe they’ll realize this, or likely not. This was Gassworthless’ legacy. Money worship, secondary homes in tropical locales, and… Read more »
OK I didn’t have to read any further than the first MISLEADING STORY in Barry Block’s make podiatry look good no matter what news. Podiatrists who love podiatry, chose podiatry, will die for podiatry and who think podiatrists are just like DOCTORS got put in their place though they don’t admit it or see it. New York said they’re desperate to have enough immunizers to give Covid vaccinations. Well, the alleged drs. of the foot had to get special TEMPORARY PERMISSION from the govenor to be allowed to do what any nurse of pharmacist can do. But, the “drs”! have… Read more »
Anything for a buck Barry will use this bullshit temp “increase” in scope to try to sell seats at the joke pod skools by reprinting more propaganda marketing articles
Does anyone know …………………. Is Hal Ornstein still on the “Secret” APMA Seal of Approval committee ?
I do know that this crook use to be.
